About this ebook

Welcome to Issue 3 of Ants & Bees, the electronic journal dedicated entirely to the history and evolution of money and the systems built around it.


This issue is fully focused on gold—the currency that has served humanity for over five thousand years and which, even today, is still regarded by many as the ultimate form of wealth ownership. Inside this edition, six new articles take us from ancient times all the way to future possibilities and technological advances. The articles are as follows:


The Alchemy of Trust: How Gold Became Money

The Psychology of Gold Bugs: The Idea of Safe Haven

Book Review: The Power of Gold — not an anti-gold book, but a warning against obsession

The Mechanics of Scarcity: How Gold Mining Shapes Empire

The Gold Standard Period — a feature focused entirely on the era when gold backed the US dollar, from 1900 through to 1974

And finally: Gold in the Digital Era — an overview of platforms putting gold within easy reach, including Glint Pay, Kinesis Money, Tally Money and more.
